That is by design. tab-to-search keys off url.

Here's some reasons why it might fail:

Thanks, that was it, sort of. It wasn't really a search engine, it
was a bookmark with a %s keyword imported from Firefox with the same
base URL. When deleted, it works.
Need some error feedback

Hi,
Chromium doesn't support window.external.AddSearchProvider , it supports

And your right, it doesn't work for slashdot.org, you can create a new bug

Btw, I just tried http://mycroft.mozdev.org/youtube-search-plugins.html
and those WILL install for me in Chrome, I get the popup, but I copied

I'm not talking about tricking someone into setting a search engine.
i'm talking about how Firefox has a page that you can click on a list
of search engines to install them into the browser. IE8 does the same

Yes, Chromium supports the OpenSearch specification. As you browse pages, if
they offer a search engine (a link rel=search tag), we'll pick it up and
automatically add it to the list of engines available in the browser. For
instance, visit http://www.slashdot.org/ and their engine will be detected
Thanks. I wasn't even aware there was an Open Search specification. I
must say though, it's pretty impressive that Chrome automatically
